As restaurants are opening on May 22nd please have some patience as we are all navigating through this pandemic together and have a new list of requirements they need to meet. Typically the rule of thumb for a brand new restaurant opening is to give them at least 3 months of being open to work out their kinks and practice the recipes before deciding if you like the restaurant or not. We are now dealing with all restaurants working through new orders and practices so lets give all our restaurants and restaurant workers some grace and courtesy. Also please tip properly, most people have lost alot of income or are working very limited hours.
Here are some of the requirements for restaurants to follow:
